Behind a secluded and unassuming exterior, The Laurels is a charming, much cared-for, Grade II-listed cottage tucked away in a quiet position in this village close to Snape and Orford and halfway between Woodbridge and Aldeburgh.

The living room with its beams, half-timbering, oak floors and fireplace retains its period authenticity. Beyond that, an architect has designed an elegant modern addition with high-pitched ceilings and doors leading to a double bedroom and wet room. The hallway then leads through a glazed garden walkway, with access to paved courtyards on either side, to an airy kitchen breakfast room comprising a range of high and low-level wooden units, marble working surfaces, butler sink, a Rayburn cooker / boiler and built-in fridge / freezer.

There is also access to a single bedroom/study, utility room and stable door to garden.
Stairs from the living room lead to the quite unique principal bedroom and en-suite bathroom.

Outside:
The drive on the side of the house provides parking. It leads across a garden courtyard towards three different beautifully-planted cottage garden areas with a crinkle-crankle wall. The further, most secluded, south-facing garden contains a large, fully insulated, double-glazed, log-cabin studio.
